Tommy Fresh Posted 20 May 2023 Share Posted 20 May 2023 We won't take adavantage, but if Leeds don't win then it falls squarely on us if we go down. To have it not reliant on other teams results with two to play is the sort of thing we'll ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can still finish above them on GD if they lose next week and we beat West Ham. That game has already been played apparently and Everton have avoided defeat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many people can’t figure out what results are good for us - or literally - don’t care. It’s been consistent since 19/20 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had so many chances to get points but dropped them ourselves. Recently, Leeds, Everton. Brighton losing to our opponents while beating top 6 clubs. Deliberate? Wolves almost wanted Everton to score and Everton did. Perspective needed. Everton and Liverpool not winning today is a good result. It’s just not as good as it could have been. We can’t be mad about any other results tbh because we’ve been gifted countless opportunities to get out of the mess we are in and we’ve spurned most of them, as I’m sure we’ll spurn this one too. We are getting what we deserve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickyblueeyes Posted 20 May 2023 Share Posted 20 May 2023 I know crazy results happen but no one can truly believe our defence keeps out Newcastle or beats West Ham. They’ve buckled every year whenever they’ve heard a roar. Who in our midfield takes control ? We don’t have it in us. I am so sure of it that if we take even 4 points from our remaining games, I will happily buy a Forest shirt. It’s over. It was over 3 weeks ago. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst there’s a chance there’s a chance. Don’t think anyone is doubting that we fully deserve to go down. But whilst there’s still a slight possibility obviously a lot of supporters are going to be disappointed at one of our relegation rivals grabbing a last minute point.

shailen Posted 20 May 2023 Share Posted 20 May 2023 1 minute ago, bennytwohats said: I don’t understand why this is difficult to comprehend. If we lose to Newcastle (likely), we go in to the last game needing to win. IF we could do that then we stay up now only if Everton lose. Before that point we’d stay up in that scenario if Everton lose or draw. That is absolutely changing something for us. The point has meant there was a combination of results that would have kept us up which now relegates us. It’s mathematical fact at this point. Do you really think two draws would have kept us up? The key was that Everton didn't win as it would certainly have taken two wins to stay up and that's before we consider what Leeds may do tomorrow. Realistically it was always going to take 2 wins to stay up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerard Posted 20 May 2023 Share Posted 20 May 2023 2 minutes ago, Matt said: Is that not a good thing in the way of thinking they might be caught off guard and/or going into the game abit too comfortable? I mean we're not going to anything for ourselves so it's an implausible scenario. All will be clearer Monday night after our game, there target isn't to finish above us but two more teams. I'm just hoping Forest are still catchable for us going into the last day as then we'll have a real chance. That Everton equaliser was a killer for us.

Tom12345 Posted 20 May 2023 Share Posted 20 May 2023 1 minute ago, MPH said: yes. That’s exactly what I’m saying. We lose and we will not be in control of our destiny. Whilst there is a razor thin chance, there’s still a chance.. If this is two seasons ago, winning two games in a row may be possible. But we have lost control many games ago and we really needed other results to go our way, which haven’t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's 18 minutes of stoppages, they add that 18 minutes on at the end. That's how. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you think or believe will happen at this point is irrelevant - this is a simple mathematical truth - a route to survival has been taken off the table, that reduces our odds of survival.
